Quby - outsmarting energy

At Quby, we believe in change: changing industries to services that help people handle every-day challenges. That’s why we created Toon, the smart platform that puts people in charge of their homes. Using technology we give people control over their energy usage, their comfort, the security of their homes, and more. Over 150 professionals at our Amsterdam office are working to create these solutions for homes and offices. Making lives smarter, easier, safer and more comfortable.

Find out which appliances are the biggest energy wasters, or how this month’s consumption affects your yearly bill. Toon even keeps an eye on your boiler, letting you know when it needs fixing.

We are paving the way towards a future where smart homes are the standard, but we can’t do it alone. What’s in it for our partners?– A dialogue with your consumers and a great NPS– Impressive churn rate cuts– Positive daily consumer interactions
